Community Calendar Please dont drink and drive In celebration of the Year of the Frog the Halton/Peel Naturalist Club will host an evening of frog-talk at the John Elliott Theatre. On Tuesday, March 11 at 7:30 p.m. the Halton Hills Cultural Centre (9 Church St.) will resound with frog calls when Don Scallen, a local teacher and writer, gives an audio-visual presentation on Halton frogs. The Association of Zoos and Aquariums designated 2008 as Year of the Frog to raise awareness of the looming extinction of up to one third of the worlds frog species. Habitat loss, pollution and a rapidly spreading fungal disease are threatening frogs worldwide. Here in Ontario the main culprit has been the tremendous loss of wetlands. The woodlands and wetlands of this region are home to 10 species of frogs that range in size from chorus frogs that could sit comfortably on a loonie to bullfrogs that can weigh in at three-quarters of a kilogram. Regardless of size, frogs give us valuable informa- tion about the health of our environment. The wonderful spring peeper choruses that resonate throughout the coun- tryside on spring nights speak of rich habitats, good not only for peepers, but for many other plants and animals. On the other hand, spring nights bereft of frog voices warn us of environmental trouble. Sounds of spring: Expert gives talk on frogs
